Just had a huge row with my family when they visited us for pre-Christmas. They’re very much not socially or politically aware, and are so so far away from accepting anything that even slightly deviates from their norms.
I hate that they’re so hateful, I hate that there’s a world view which is so hateful, so reductive, so insular. The obsession and identity with, and of, categorical black and white thinking. The dismissal of any idea, fact, or reason for nuance.
The idea that others are simply play things for their strict worldview.
Just fuck that, and fuck them, for the things they’ve said, which I won’t post here.
